The Challenge of Enterprise Application Acceleration

Enterprise and Agencies today depend on a wide variety of applications to support their mission. Any effective solution for application acceleration must provide significant acceleration and visibility for all key applications that cross the WAN. Moreover, WAN optimization is not a one-time medicine applied to an environment. Complete WAN optimization solutions give users the ability to measure pain points, alleviate the problems, attest to the cure, and then adjust according to what the agency needs in the future. Enterprise application performance is an ongoing challenge, and ThunderCat can provide a complete set of tools to help attain mission goals.

To make the application performance leap that enterprises need, a radically different approach must be taken: Simultaneously address bandwidth constraints, TCP's behavior in high latency networks, and inefficiencies in the applications themselves. Moreover, agencies must provide application-level visibility into the complete IT infrastructure, and then use their IT optimization infrastructure to create global controls that allow optimal performance.
